Adidas revealed that it sold more than 3
million Germany 2014/15 World Cup Home Shirts. Previously the record was held by the
Germany 2006 Home Shirt, but those numbers were more than doubled in the World
Cup-winning year of 2014. Remarkably, one third of the Germany shirts were sold outside of Germany,
showing the global appeal of the German national team and its Adidas kit. Compared to major club teams, the Germany
2014/15 shirt sales look even more special. Between 2009 and 2014 Real Madrid had
the highest sales in the period selling a little over 1.5 million shirts each
year, followed by Manchester United, FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich.
